Acetic acid, commonly known as acetic acid (AcOH), is named after it is the main component of vinegar and is one of the most important fatty acids. Generally, it exists in many plants in free form or ester form in nature. The molecular formula is CH3COOH. Vinegar has been brewed and used for thousands of years. There are records about vinegar making in ancient China. But concentrated acetic acid is a Chemicalbook developed by Stahl in 1700. Pure acetic acid is a colorless liquid with a pungent smell. The melting point is 16.6°C, the boiling point is 117.9°C, and the relative density is 1.049 (20/4°C). Soluble in water, ethanol, glycerin, ether and carbon tetrachloride; insoluble in carbon disulfide. Anhydrous acetic acid solidifies into ice at low temperature, commonly known as glacial acetic acid. Corrosive. It is a weak organic acid with the generality of an acid and can undergo an esterification reaction with alcohol.
